The Mexican Elections
Belmont Club
By wretchard

The Presidential election in Mexico is getting to be a real nail-biter. As of this writing, Obrador leads by a sliver over Calderon but the difference is closing. Not clear whether it will close enough. See Mark in Mexico (who's liveblogging the count) and El Universal, which is posting updates regularly (the Spanish is self-explanatory). The outcome will have a lot of bearing on the immigration debate.
Update

With nearly all the ballots counted, Calderon has a wafer-thin lead, in the tenths of a percent, so thin that I'm practically certain this election will be contested.
